  • Ideas for very simple improvements to instant noodles?

    Jump

  • Sliced bok choy, julienned ham, julienned carrots, baby spinach, slices of pancetta... If you're willing to pre-funk some ingredients up to a few days in advance, you can have more tasty additions such as marinated hardboiled eggs, lap cheong (shelf-stable until you open the package), chashu, crispy pork belly, Chinese or Japanese brisket curry.

  • Fatboy Slim mental health workshop picks up health trust award

    Jump

  • I've never met the guy, but have friends who did. Fatboy Slim seems like the Fred Rogers of EDM. And this makes me very happy.

  • Trump Told a Woman, ‘Quiet, Piggy,’ When She Asked Him About Epstein

    Jump

  • Indeed.

  • HJF. That guest list... That wasn't a black tie dinner. That was an assembly of overlords meeting with the kings of their respective kingdoms. Those are the people one would assemble if feudalism is the goal.

  • You know you have a cool pic when it still looks great with your finger in the corner. :D

  • Your old android phone is begging to be a cheap home server!

    Jump

  • Serious question: what are y'all's methods to prevent/deal with spicy pillows?

  • Who else saw "Shropshire" and immediately thought of this guy?

  • ‘Earth’s Greatest Enemy’ Shows Us We Have No Choice

    Jump

  • Dude. Your long form response speaks to my soul. I appreciate that someone else gets that large topics cannot be reduced to short and quippy comments.

  • I think I'm suddenly very allergic to my cat maybe? What gives????

    Jump

  • The toxicity is in the dose. If you're actually allergic to your cat, it could be a seasonal change in his grooming regimen resulting in more saliva on his fur, which means more allergen proteins in the dander.

    Another possibility: seasonal change has resulted in something blooming to which you're mildly allergic. The combination of things might have tipped you over the edge of allergic response.

    There are a ton of factors that could be in play, and only an allergist can tell you for sure what's going on.

  • White Dudes in Winter

    Jump

  • It's like you know me.

  • White Dudes in Winter

    Jump

  • I feel seen and understood. And I'm not white.

    Although, I'm currently in the Tennessee/North Carolina cold snap panic. People are all bundled up, and I am genuinely comfortable in my shorts and sandals. About 5 less degrees or 10 MPH more wind, and I'd put on shoes.

  • Zohran Mamdani wins: what’s next in the fight against the billionaires?

    Jump

  • That's the funny thing about local elections. They shift the needle at the local level. Getting into every little aspect of local politics has been the Conservative playbook for decades. So, yeah, it's actually a big deal. Mamdani's win shows us that billionaires can bring all the money they want, but apes strong together. We can turn this tide if we stick together, get involved, and not get distracted by counterintelligence efforts.

    And despite purity test efforts of some trolls, people were able to see past the bullshit.

  • USDA Threatens Stores Giving Discounts to People on Food Stamps

    Jump

  • They are trying to cause riots

    This is my exact read on the matter. We can't be the only ones to see it this way. What surprises me is that more analysts and pundits aren't talking about the economic violence from this angle. And when the masses finally reach their threshold, the Conservatives will do their "Whaaaat? So much for the tolerant Left."

  • “Bike shops are the worst”: E-bike subscription service founder slams “gatekeeping” shops but others claim “bad take” ignores role of bike shops in growing cycling

    Jump

  • Scott Murphy is so full of shit, his eyes are brown. This is exactly the bullshit I expect from a rent-seeking asshole CEO. He is literally marketing FUD in order to put subscription money in his pocket. This is one of the cases where you can determine the actual truth by assuming the opposite of what is being said. He beats on this trope of almost all bike shops being elitist when the exact opposite is true.

    Notice how much he repeats that. This is called The Big Lie: repeat an extreme distortion of the truth enough times and people will internalize that distortion as true. There's something that happens in our brains that causes this to work better with larger distortions rather than small lies.

  • Not stupid if it works

    Jump

  • Frame? Has to pass through the caliper, which it won't.

  • I don't buy fortune cookies to be fucking attacked

    Jump

  • When I was a child, my family visited a Chinese restaurant in Washington DC, and we received hilarious gag fortune cookies. Mine said "If you're reading this, the poison hasn't worked yet."

    My mother's asshole boyfriend got one that said "Some people have it, some people don't. And you don't." He lost his shit. Fumed for days, and I laughed my ass off.

  • What's the key to a woman's heart and does finding love have a cutoff point?

    Jump
    • Don't be ugly, especially not inside, but it helps to look like you at least care about your body and appearance. Added bonus: by going to the gym/hiking/bicycling/being active, you'll get out more and meet more people. The stronger your network, the more likely you will meet a person who is a good match. Funny things happen when you get deep into active hobbies: you meet more people with those same interests.
    • Choose partners because of how well they match with who you are right now. Stated another way: don't choose potential mates on deterministic physical traits. Sure, everyone wants the super-hot partner. Choose partners because traits over which they have control appeal to you.
    • Even if you meet a great person, that person will most likely change. Emotional maturity here is supporting and understanding your partner's growth. If you cannot accept how the person has changed, end gracefully and amicably. Move on.
    • "Keys to her heart:" Communication. Ask, listen. Corollary to that, being explicit about your needs and wants in a relationship. Out of 8 billion people, your romantic paradigm cannot possibly be unique. It's up to you to develop the patience, emotional intelligence, and interpersonal skills to fulfill those needs by nurturing healthy relationships.
    • Anxiety and agoraphobia: get help. Empathy by way of anecdote, I have crushing depression, paralyzing anxiety, and nearly intractable ADHD. I spent almost three years in intensive therapy, with two separate therapists, seeing them both every week. TL;DR: want results? Put in the self-work.
    • "Feels like my time of finding someone has gone past its chances:" The time is past only if you give up or you're dead. Here's a speedrun of how "too-late" it is: I imploded my first two marriages. The second marriage didn't even last a year, although we were together for 20 months prior to getting hitched. After a few years of working on myself and examining the root causes of my failures, I met my dream partner at 47 years old. We just had our 8-year anniversary.
    • "Hopefully I can get out of this deep hole I’m in as I’m in a terrible rut right now:" When you're in a hole, stop digging. Change whatever it is you need to change. Otherwise if you keep doing what you've done, you're going to keep getting what you got.

  • Tacos, burritos... it's all good.

    I agree with your point, however I should conduct some empirical testing. Side-by-side, of course. Just to be sure.
